I'm pretty interested in this 1997 ranger. It has some serious body damage (I personally don't care) but I mean this truck has been kicked in and vandalized. The bed is in really rough shape & rusted out. The guy's only asking for $500 & it's not running currently because it was out of timing and the valves got bent. I'm not a mechanic, nor an expert that's why I'm asking for help here. Is it too much work to be bothered to get it running and legal? How much should a bed run for? Or.. is there any short cuts to getting a semi-rusted out bed to be "usable"? I really do not care how it looks. Also, how hard is it to replace valves? I apologize for my extremely newby questions.
